US magician, author and star of his own BBC series ‘Stuff the White Rabbit’, ‘Secrets of Magic’ and ITV’s ‘Hoaxbusters with John Lenahan – it’s JOHN LENAHAN

Diva of magic – ROMANY

BEN HANLIN is the writer and star of ITV2’s hidden camera magic show, Tricked, that debuted in October 2013 and is now in its third series, airing this Autumn on ITV2.

This mischievous show sees Ben tricking unsuspecting members of the public and shocking celebrities with his own special brand of cheeky magic! Tricked won Best Entertainment Programme at the Broadcast Digital Awards 2014.

He has also recently starred in the West End in hit show ‘The Illusionists’

ROMANY started her career as a knife-throwing, fire-juggling street performer. She then flew off to

study MAGIC in Las Vegas with the best magicians of the world. Many, many shows later, Romany became

the first and only woman ever to be named Magic Circle Stage Magician of the Year, was awarded the

International Brotherhood of Magician British Shield for Most Entertaining Stage Act and received the

highest possible honour from the Magic Circle i.e. the degree of ‘Member of the Inner Magic Circle with

Gold Star for Performance’.

“You are so charming and very, very funny!!" DAME JUDI DENCH

“Brilliant magic. You really made me laugh, we all fell in love with you!” JOHNNY DEPP

JOHN LENAHAN came to Britain from his native Philadelphia for a short trip and has never quite made it back.

John originally grabbed the headlines as the first person in 85 years to be expelled from the Magic Circle. The 3-card trick he exposed on How Do They Do That? is no more than a gambling con, but John took the rap and enjoyed the publicity.

2004 saw him starring in a new primetime BBC1 show, Secrets of Magic. His own BBC2 series, Stuff The White Rabbit, achieved record ratings for the slot.

Other TV credits include presenting the travelogue Open Road, playing the voice of the toaster in Red Dwarf, and guest appearances on everything from TFI Friday to Celebrity Squares. He also fronted HoaxBusters, an ITV network show lifting the lid on scams and hoaxes.
